"Can I come in, brother?"
Rachel's voice suddenly sounded from outside.
Rika gave Eric a gesture of farewell, then left the room.
Rachel, waiting outside the door, saw Rika come out and glanced at the woman who had always followed Eric but whom she disliked.
Yes, she disliked her a bit.
The reason for her dislike, besides Rika and Eric growing closer recently, was mostly that she felt Rika lacked compassion.
She had found a cute kitten in the alley and wanted to adopt it, but after Rika discovered it, she ordered the expulsion of all stray dogs and cats from the entire area.
According to her, the most inappropriate emotions in this world were compassion and pity for the weak.
This led Rachel to have a very bad impression of Rika.
After an angry glance at Rika, Rachel entered the room.
"How is Mom?"
Eric brought over a glass of Rachel's favorite iced cola and handed it to her.
"She's fine, but…"
Rachel hesitated for a moment, then said to Eric, "Mom is still a bit angry, saying that if Dad were here, he would absolutely not allow you to do such a thing."
"Is that so?"
Eric looked at the sleeping city outside, was silent for a moment, and then said, "I will go explain to Mom."
Seeing Eric's somewhat heavy expression, Rachel walked over and hugged Eric, extending her hands to hold his.
"No matter what happens, brother, I will always be on your side."
Rachel said firmly to Eric.
Although she wasn't entirely clear about the meaning of Eric's actions, she felt that whatever he did was meaningful, no matter what happened.
Eric reached out and stroked his sister's hair, not speaking.
But Rachel could feel the warmth in her brother's palm.
"What about Clark? Has Rachel not seen him recently?"
"Uh…"
Rachel shook her head, "Brother Clark hasn't been back to the farm for a long time."
She was a bit downcast.
"Why does Clark have to stand with those bad guys and oppose you, brother?!"
Rachel pouted and said unhappily.
"Because Clark has always been firm in the path he wants to take; he has grown a lot, no longer that impulsive and thoughtless guy when things happen. He has his own ideas."
Eric said to Rachel.
